Name

The name of the settlement was changed from Znojile to Znojile pri Krki (literally, 'Znojile near Krka') in 1953. The name Znojile is derived from *znoji(d)lo 'sunny or sun-facing area' from the verb *znojiti 'to be warmed by the sun'. The name therefore refers to the geographical orientation of the place.
